Klappentext

"This is a superb book, one of the best ever written on the Elizabethan drama. It handles an important theme with enormous authority and skill, combining breadth and learning with some extremely incisive critical commentary. Books of this calibre are rare."--Jonas Barish "A fresh and illuminating study. It is not just another interpretation, no matter how good, of several major works, but rather a suggestion about how many works of this period should be approached.... Should be of great interest to specialists in the field."--Eugene Waith
